#15089, "Anyone with straight pipe instead of cat."




          

I went to put on my straight pipe today and I didnt because when I loked under the car I saw that the stock cat holds up the middle of my exhaust piping. If I put in the straight pipe the middle will sag down. I have a flex section on the downpipe so if there is nothing holding it up I think it will be too low. Anyone have any suggestions on what I could do? I was thinking about rigging something up like a hanger to hold the straight pipe. But that is kinda ghetto if you ask me.

Why dont you goto a machine shop and have them fabricate some kind of clamp and weld it to the straight pipe??
